Sex Chromosome Evolution in Felidae and its Potential Effects on Meiotic Drive and Hybrid Sterility Brashear, Wesley Allen (2019-04-26)The main motivation for this dissertation research was to gain a better understanding of mammalian sex chromosome evolution and its contribution to reproductive isolation between species. We first conducted a comparative ...
